This quaint cafe was nice for somewhere to break between looking at all the antiques and wares. Unique in and old train carriage as well as additional seating outside. There is a playground just outside for the kids and a kids menu as well.

I haven't been since the new management took over recently.

It's a great place to go on the weekend, nice little cafe which is always busy but I absolutely love they secondhand book store, there are thousands of books in every genre and it's a great way to spend the afternoon just browsing through the bookshelves, having a read and taking home heaps of books.

I have previously enjoyed my visits to Tyabb Packing house. I have Tourette Syndrome, so look odd because of my motor ans vocal tics. There are very few places I have felt 'safe'. Until yesterday this was one of them. Yesterday someone there took offence to my presence and felt the need to make a false allegation they saw me stealing. My bag was roughly searched and after I left the police approached me (not on the premises, so I was unable to know who had perpetrated the lie or why) they informed me of the allegation and questioned me which made me feel like a criminal (I am a qualified paediatric speech pathologist, well respected in my community). While the matter was dropped. It has shattered me. I won't be going back. It's no longer a safe place.

mmm Devonshire tea is one of the first things that comes to mind for me! And of course the lovely antiques that you can find in this place. Definitely worth a good look around may never know what you will find!

A great place to go to spend the day! Full of antiques in all different rooms, you will lose the time looking at all the different items. Staff are very knowledgeable and friendly. Also has a cafe there if you get a bit hungry!

I haven't been here for years, I was glad to see it has only improved. I could spend days at this place discovering all sorts of nick nacks, and imagine how many things I have thrown out over the years that people still value! From top end antiques to literal junk this is a place that is fascinating for all walks of life. Leave the littlies at home though, it would be easy to break something there. Great day out.

This place is FANTASTIC.I spend hours here just looking at all the different antique shops under one roof.There is also a retro furniture/nic/nacks shop.There are a few shops selling classy new stuff such as jewelry,toiletries,lace bedspreads etc etc and kids bits and bobs.All classy stuff.A HUGE second hand book section and two or three cafes(one inside old train carriages)Up the back is a working craft village,milliner,teddy bears,garden ornaments.etc etc.Fantastic place to spend a day just browsing and having lunch/coffee.No pressure to spend money.
